WRESTLER OF THE DAY: SILVER KING


RIPPA

Recommended Posts

All of the second-tier luchadores in WCW unfortunately tend to kinda blur together in my memory, since they so rarely got storylines and were basically tossed out in expendable scramble matches on every show to pop the live crowd and wow the kids and draw some Latino gate.  But the company clearly never gave one single fuck about those guys, with the announcers usually rattling on about that night's NWO angle the whole time.  What little I remember of him did seem pretty damn solid.  And of course, he was the king-sized dickest rudo of all time in Nacho Libre, just PERFECTLY nailing a legitimately sharp and hilarious satire of the preening egotistical Mascaras-style asshole superstar.

I love Silver King.  The genes of Dr. Wagner are strong!

 

 

I prefer the Los Cowboy version of Silver King to the masked rudo.

 

And yeah, Jingus.   Ramses was the fucking man..
